WARREN CONNECTICUT – I explored another rainy day in Connecticut with my Hasselblad and a 300mm lens. This combination is a handful and really requires a solid tripod – hand holding is out of the question. I particularly like the way that the Hasselblad renders greens. Here is a three frames stitch for an amazing 130 megs in pixel dimensions.
This is another focus stack – nine images combined in Helicon Focus.
On this day one year ago: Lunch in Connecticut.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Back in Connecticut with my Hasselblad an the rain. This is one of my favorite images of the season.
The image below proves that dandelions aren’t the only flowers that we have. Nine images focus stacked in Helicon Focus.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – More work sorting through my medium format kit. Here is a test shot outside of Fotocare in New York of a Rodenstock 43mm lens on my Alpa. The Rodenstock had a fair amount of linear distortion, which isn’t evident in this picture because I used an Alpa plugin for Photoshop that corrects lens distortion.
On this day last year: Carnegie Hall.
